and ya, be'faour yaZ say it jiri ;)
i realize that carl's code frag i pasted a couple minutes ago
doesnt actually solve the problem as i originally stated it
with only one line....my bad ;)
is it modifiable to do so?
to return the highest value contained within a sequence?
is it indeed possible to create a one-liner(tm) that
returns the highest/lowest value in a sequence?
at this point im not sure....
recursively split the sequence in consecutive halves and
pass those halves to carl's function???
(ok so that might take 2 lines or more...)
